Intussusception associated with a Meckel's diverticulum and a duplication cyst.
Journal of Pediatric Surgery 2008 December
Intussusception is a frequent cause for bowel obstructions and pediatric surgical consults. First described by Barbette in 1674, the etiology and treatment of intussusception has undergone several revisions for the last 300 years. Currently, we understand most intussusceptions in young children to be of idiopathic in nature with the incidence of pathologic lead points increasing with the age of the child. Although both Meckel's diverticulum and duplication cysts have both been reported numerous times in the past as a source of a lead point, we report, to our knowledge, the only case of both found in a child requiring operative reduction.
